My first post. I need to repair my Philips window latch for my 1967Sovereign. The thin metal tongue that extends out to grab the wind broke clean off the parts that wrap around the bar. I'm hoping I can just re-weld them back together. Anyone have experience doing this repair? What worked well? What didn't? Is material aluminum or steel?
Once I get the piece back together, I'm not sure if they go above the bar or below.
I left them a message this morning so hopefully I'll hear back from them soon. I have a local metalsmith working on making some replacements but he's having trouble locating spring steel in the same gauge in small quantities. My trailer is missing a few odds and ends that perhaps they can supply as well.
